Database Entry Links

Krisa Ono December 18, 2024


I really don't like the look is there any way to change it?
I would really love to have it as like plain text or just bolded, something super simple.
They look like this:

Hi @Krisa Ono

It appears that you are new to the Confluence databases feature.

Confluence databases support various types of entries, such as dates, owners, URLs, and plain text.

I recommend reviewing the documentation provided below for more detailed information and a comprehensive list of supported field types.

Thanks,
Dhanush

This does not really answer my question. This is how the link populates when I use smart links in the database. It doesn't allow me to change the formatting of the smart links at all they appear that way with no way to edit it.

It seems you're using Entry Link for that field, which enables you to reference all entries from a selected field in a different database.

However, if you're using Smart Link for that field, you won't be able to simply click on the link to change the view as you would on a page. Instead, you'll need to use the available fields, like "text," to input your data.

So there is no way to change how this appears in the data table. Thanks, that's really all I needed to know.

Hi @Krisa Ono , welcome to the Atlassian Community and thanks for your question. 

I'm going to escalate this post to Atlassian because I think this is really a product question for Confluence Databases and I don't know of another way to get Atlassian's eyes on this.

Someone should reply to you directly in this post. 

Best regards
